Dominique was amazing as my doula fir our first baby! She was extremely informative and open to talk about any and every question I had. My favorite part about her services were the prenatal stretches and birth plan review just to ensure I was in co stroller and aware of my options. Amazing bedside manners, support and knowledge.

Hello! My name is Tab’itha, better known as Tabby, and I’m a passionate certified professional midwife currently residing in Mesquite, Texas. I was born and raised in the Stop 6 area of Fort Worth, TX, and I am a proud mother of three teenage girls. From a young age, I always wanted to be a "baby doctor." My grandmother would often say, "You will be a doctor, and your sister will be a lawyer." Although I encountered quite a few roadblocks and detours along the way, I eventually found my way back to what my grandmother had always believed in, but in a way that resonates with me even more—becoming a midwife. I later discovered that midwifery was in my blood; my great-grandmother was a trusted midwife in her small community in Mississippi, which further inspired my journey. I graduated from Southwest Tech with an associate degree in Health Science and Midwifery in December 2024 and passed my NARM exam in April 2025, becoming fully licensed as a midwife in Texas. I am currently finishing up my Bachelor’s in Nursing at Arizona College, further enhancing my skills and knowledge in healthcare. My journey into birth work began in 2018 when I trained as a birth doula through DONA. As a doula, I have attended over 150 in-hospital and out-of-hospital births. When COVID peaked, I was fortunate enough to continue support in the hospital. It was during this time that I realized I needed to acquire the education and skills to become a community midwife sooner than I had originally planned. During my schooling, I attended an additional 95 births and worked with several well-respected midwives and OB-GYNs in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, gaining invaluable experience. I have also acquired skills and experience as a bereavement and cesarean/VBAC support specialist, allowing me to provide comprehensive care to families during significant moments in their lives. I believe in the power of compassionate care and informed choices, striving to create a safe and nurturing environment for my clients. My end goal is to become a certified nurse midwife and nurse practitioner, bringing holistic and woman-centered care to communities that lack representation, including the area where I grew up. As an avid homeschooler, I enjoy engaging with my daughters in their education while also finding joy in my hobbies such as sewing, crafts, hosting workshops for young girls, and assisting in the offices I hold in my church. My goal is to continue growing in my practice while providing exceptional care to those I serve.

Tabitha is such an amazing birth worker, I met her when she was a doula and in the beginning stages of midwifery.The way she educated myself as well as my husband showed us that she was really passionate about the profession that she is in. I highly recommend any family to get under her care. Your amazing Tabby keep shining!

Hi! I am a birth doula serving Tarrant and Parker counties. I specialize in hospital birth, and have experience with high risk moms, as well as moms who have experienced previous birth, medical, or other trauma. I love empowering and educating moms to be able to make their own confident decisions! I believe that birth support isn’t a luxury service. I am able to break my free up into multiple payments, and can accept HSA. I also work with an organization that might be able to provide a doula at no cost to you for those who qualify. Contact me today to schedule a free consultation to see if I would be a good fit for you!

I found Cynthia in a panic around 36 weeks pregnant, after my original doula didn’t work out. I had accepted the fact that I wouldn’t have a doula & it was probably too late to find someone. Cynthia heard my story and quickly took me under her wing. She helped me with prepping for labor, gave me tools to get the baby in an optimal position, & as a bonus, became a bff to my toddler! This was my first home birthing experience so I was so thankful she was willing to help me. When it came time that I went into labor, Cynthia was quick to be here & assist me. I labored extremely quick & there is no way I could have handled my wild labor without her. She kept me calm & reminded me I could do it & to breath through the contractions. She helped me clear my head space & stay grounded. I will forever be thankful for Cynthia & highly recommend her! If I decide to have more babies, I will definitely be using her again.

Tuve la oportunidad de que Elizabeth me atendiera en mi segundo parto y aunque ya sabia de qué se trataba estaba llena de dudas e inquietudes. Ella me brindó no solo los cuidados durante el embarazo si no también apoyo emocional y me guió a conseguir el parto de mis sueños con su amplia cartera de proveedores desde quiropractico hasta encontrar una doula. Estoy agradecida de haberla tenido a mi lado y la recomiendo ampliamente por su profesionalismo y calidad Humana.

Hello Families. My name is Dereka Carter and I am a maternal support practitioner and newborn care specialist excited to care for you and your little one. In addition to the daily operation of Carter Comprehensive Birth, I also specialize in working with high-profile families that travel the world while enjoying doing so. My parenting practice and teachings have strong roots in respectful care and I emphasize attachment theory about infant and parental mental health. I pride myself on being friendly, warm, empathetic, and flexible while helping families adapt to their new normal. Regardless of my training, I am happy to support your family goals in a nonjudgmental way while helping everyone transition into their new roles.

Recent review

LaDereka was and has continued to be our emotional and healthcare question support through pregnancy as a teacher (daddy boot camp), doula and newborn care specialist. She was key to helping us understand our options and what to expect when my pregnancy went from normal and healthy to a diagnosis of gestational hypertension with bed rest at 34 weeks. LaDereka helped us rewrite our birth preferences to accommodate an induction at 37 weeks and led us through the different interventions and natural options we could try before agreeing to an intervention. LaDereka remained by our side through out the labor process as a trusted guide and second opinion with which to weigh the nurse and doctor’s suggestions and feedback. It was great to be able to ask questions and understand the process even when our nurse was attending to other patients. Although we ended up delivering our happy and healthy baby girl via caesarean, I know we tried everything we could have for a natural birth. As our newborn care specialist LaDereka was there on night 1 to ease our transition from hospital to home. Dad is getting to sleep through the night and takes over when her shift ends in the morning and mom is enjoying 8+ hours of sleep each night (with pumping mixed in!). Not only has LaDereka’s care of our newborn allowed us to prioritize sleep and my recovery, she’s a wonderful resource for lactation and all things baby care.

Hi friend, I’m Prisca, the doula behind your birth friend I’m a certified doula, wife, and mama with a big heart for walking alongside women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. My care is rooted in connection, the kind that feels genuine, grounding, and personal. I believe doula support should feel less like a service and more like a steady friendship. Someone in your corner who gets it, sees you, and walks with you through it all. I believe every woman deserves: gentle, personalized support evidence-based guidance and someone who truly sees her I also believe that knowledge is power. When women understand their options, their bodies, and the birth process, they’re able to step into this journey feeling confident, informed, and deeply supported. I’m passionate about helping women feel equipped and empowered every step of the way. Birth isn’t just physical, it’s emotional, spiritual, and sacred. That’s why my support goes beyond timelines and checklists. I show up with heart, with presence, and with care that’s built on trust, friendship, and faith. My faith is the foundation of how I serve. It’s what grounds me, guides me, and helps me hold space with love and grace in every space I enter. Whether we’re chatting over tea during pregnancy, breathing through contractions together, or unpacking the beautiful, messy layers of postpartum, I’ll be right there with you as your steady, grounded support. I serve families in Charlotte, NC, and the surrounding areas, and it would be an honor to walk with you through your journey. Got questions? Want to connect? Or want to say hi? I’d love to hear from you! I’ve poured a lot of heart into my website, and I would be delighted if you stopped by. I’d love to connect with you there.

Working with Prisca was the best decision we made for our birth. From the very first meeting, she made us feel heard and supported. She provided so much helpful information, helped us feel prepared, and was a calming, reassuring presence throughout labor. Her warmth, knowledge, and encouragement made all the difference. We can’t recommend her enough!

As a Certified Doula, I love walking beside families through the transitions of pregnancy, labor and postpartum. I believe having access to positive support during those times contributes not only to better birth outcomes, but stronger bonds within the family and community as well. A mother of six myself, and while I have many interests and hobbies, like gardening and reading (SO much reading!) my knowledge around birth and motherhood has been a constant thread of connection with those I meet. I am honored when families value my input by bringing their questions to me! I am always seeking to learn more and have no hesitation in pointing clients to other resources if I am unsure of an answer. I strive to encourage an informed, prepared, and calm birth environment for my clients, meeting challenges that arise with patience and proven techniques.

Hello everyone! My name is Jody Janek and I am a birth doula. My background is education in many areas: home economics, child development, early childhood, special education and ended with school counseling for pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade. I'm married to my lifelong sweetheart and I have three amazing grown children that have three amazing spouses. My absolute joy in life is being a Lolli to four precious grandbabies and more to come!!! I love birth! I feel that there is no birth story better than any other. My goal as a doula is to keep you calm, peaceful, and fearless with lots of love and positive affirmations. Let me help you make your "dream birth" come true.

Recent review

I wasn’t sure I would need a doula or not. This was my second unmedicated birth and my first went well so we questioned the value. When I tell you it made my birth experience tremendously different, it made a world of difference. My birth this time was about half the time of my first and the contractions picked up quickly. It was amazing to have someone guide my labor the whole way, time contractions for me, play my playlist, help do hip squeezes and comfort measures before I even asked for them. There was a point when I had stalled and my midwife suggested breaking my water to help progress things. I was in laborland and couldn’t think at that point, and Jody guided me through the risk and reward factors to help me make an informed choice. Having her helped my husband be less anxious because he had her knowledge and support to lean on. She knew when to step in and when to step back. If birth had a best friend, it would be Jody. I highly recommend her to anyone in or out of hospital for any birth, but especially if your goal is an unmedicated birth, book her now and thank me later!

First, as a sister and a friend, then as a mother myself, I have seen the medical system sew fear and doubt into women regarding their body's capability to achieve what it was intended to. The truth is, childbirth is both natural and miraculous. I believe that every woman has the right to decide what interventions she wants to use in childbirth without the use of fear, but instead through true informed consent. I continue learning daily how best to help each new mama, both through lived experiences and through research, and will gladly share my knowledge. I also believe that every woman should be supported through the most vulnerable and powerful moment of her life. In a system that pushes women away from their natural state, I am here to be that calming support and fierce advocate.

Here’s a thoughtful and heartfelt review you can use or personalize further: Review for My Amazing Doula I truly don’t have enough words to express how grateful I am for my doula. From the moment we arrived at the hospital and realized I was being put into labor unexpectedly, she jumped into action and never left my side. She was calm, collected, and incredibly supportive through every twist and turn. She advocated for me in ways I didn’t even know I needed — asking the right questions, helping me understand my options, and making sure my voice was heard in a very overwhelming environment. Her presence was reassuring and grounding, and I honestly don’t know how I would have managed without her. She kept me calm, hydrated, and motivated during every stage. Her attention to detail and ability to anticipate my needs was amazing. I felt genuinely cared for, and that made all the difference in my experience. If you’re looking for a doula who is compassionate, strong, knowledgeable, and fully committed to your well-being, look no further. She is truly a gift.

We believe that birth is YOUR story and should be done your way. We try our best to support our clients wishes during births and follow directions for post Partum care as well. We think it’s important not to push clients to do things but allow them to choose their own paths. We love what we do and love educating our clients so that they’re able to make the best decisions for themselves and feel well informed when doing so… We are a team/partnership of two doulas and a registered nurse to cover all things birth, postpartum and beyond!

Kourtney was our son’s night doula for 8 weeks. We interviewed several doula’s before landing on her. From our very first conversation Kourtney’s professionalism, knowledge, and kindness stood out well above the others. From discussing her schedule, rates, and philosophy of care, she was clearly very experienced and willing to educate us as first time parents. She was also willing to work with our schedule and needs to make her services work for both of us. Working with Kourtney was nothing short of amazing. She was always on time or early for every shift, she came prepared to learn about our sons day and what to expect out of the night. We were always able to discuss any concerns we have and she gave great advice to help us manage him when she was not there. She helped us trouble shoot the many challenges we had navigating our son’s first few weeks of life. Offering advice on how to treat his ailments, products to support his care, and when to consult our pediatrician. Our son was a NICU baby and we were extremely concerned for his early development and couldn’t have found a better provider to be a part of our village. Every night we were able to rest peacefully knowing our son was in great care. Kourtney took great notes and let us know how he did every night and gave us suggestions to have a good day and better nights when she wasn’t coming in. Overall, Kourtney was the best doula we could have asked for and we loved working with her. We highly recommend her as a caregiver.

I am a passionate doula and yoga teacher who loves helping people find balance and strength in every stage of life. As a birth and postpartum doula, I specialize in natural births and believe every woman should have the opportunity to birth on her own terms. I provide evidence-based education, emotional support, and hands-on care, empowering families to make informed decisions that align with their values. With a calming presence and deep respect for the birthing process, I ensure each person feels supported, heard, and in control of their experience. Since 2019, I’ve been sharing my love for yoga through mindful, approachable classes filled with good energy. With a bachelor's degree in Child Development, I blend my deep knowledge with a warm, compassionate approach—whether I’m guiding someone on the mat or supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. Above all, I am a devoted mother who cherishes time with my son. I find joy in the outdoors, spending my free moments with loved ones, on my yoga mat, or enjoying peaceful walks. My mission is to create nurturing, empowering spaces where people can grow, connect, and feel supported on their journey.

Mya is amazing! She did an excellent job going over my options (both in terms of birth interventions and her support measures) and learning my birth desires and preferred comfort measures during prenatal appointments. She took the time to interact with my children so they’d feel comfortable with her coming into our home. Once we knew baby was on the way, she arrived quickly and more than prepared for all my potential needs and desires. When labor was hard, I felt comfortable expressing my feelings, and Mya knew exactly what to do and say to encourage me and physically help me through the discomfort. My mother made it a point to call me the next day and say that Mya has a warm yet calming energy, and that she was impressed with how anticipatory Mya was (noticing when I might need water, a tens unit adjustment, a comb to hold, etc. and acting right away). I even overheard my midwife telling Mya how impressed she was and asking for business cards so she could recommend Mya to her clients. This was my third child and third unmedicated birth, and I can say with confidence that—even as an experienced and thoroughly educated mother—Mya made a significant, positive difference in how I experienced my labor. She was a trusted friend who moved through the experience with me, soothing me, supporting my family, and effortlessly helping to coordinate small details like facilitating pickup with the placenta encapsulator. I appreciated her knowledge, work ethic, and servant’s spirit. If I ever fall pregnant again, I will be hiring Mya, and I highly recommend you do, too.
